SEI Investments reviews

Recent large scale, highly unexpected layoffs have created a climate of uncertainty. There continues to be very little transparency from the executive team, and trust in leadership has eroded significantly. Long tenured employees often feel pushed out as part of ongoing cost cutting efforts. The culture has shifted toward fear and instability, with job security feeling increasingly fragile. There is a big focus on offshoring aiding to lack of job security.

Where do I start? At SEI you are overworked, and underpaid. Minimal raises at year-end, constant cuts to bonuses and unreal expectation. Technology sucks, it’s outdated, something is always down, doesn’t work properly, and is not capable of performing client requests, you are stuck with finding solutions to make it work with multiple workarounds, that sometimes take hours to process. Management is shady, no communication, it doesn’t matter how loyal you are or how many years worked for the company, position will be cut in a second and they won’t even blink. Lots of offshoring. It’s a good place to start right out of college, but don’t expect it to last too long. Your job there is never guaranteed these days. Underpaid workers by industry standards, I’m on the market now and similar positions in other companies offer at least 30% more. Overall, it’s just becoming another corporate firm whose main goal is to draw pretty numbers for investors, without regards to people who help them get there. However, they always tell that people are their biggest assets, which is a lie.
